The Leader in Sterilization Intelligence
Software Solutions working towards 100% Compliance in Surgical Instrument Decontamination and Sterilization
Proper cleaning and sterilization of surgical equipment is the most critical issue facing every hospital — but the industry is falling short.
300,000+ instruments
1,000s of IFUs
100s of global manufactures
Impossible for SPD professionals to memorize all IFUs
Operational mandates require that the IFU be readily accessible, reviewed and followed
These things simply aren’t happening
Non-Compliance Risk
As many as 50% of instruments aren’t being properly cleaned & sterilized in accordance to the manufacturer validated specifications*
The industry has settled for an unacceptable “one size fits most” approach with generic cleaning parameters
Many hospitals are failing to meet the evidence-based guidance of AAMI, FDA, CMS, TJC, DNV and AORN.
Improper sterilization is a contributing factor with surgical site infections (SSIs), re-admissions and threats to the health and safety of staff
It also brings legal risk, financial risk and reputational damage
74% of immediate threat to life declarations from The Joint Commission are related to improperly sterilized or HLD equipment**
